Top 10 Characters that Should Be Playable in Super Smash Bros.

The iconic Nintendo fighting game series Super Smash Bros. has been around for over two decades and has seen its playable character roster increase from only 12 characters to over 80 characters when counting DLC. And yet, there are many more characters that deserve a chance to fight.

This list is for the fighters you would most like to see added in future Super Smash Bros. installments or DLC releases. Vote for the characters you most want to fight with or against, or add a most wanted character if it's not already in the list.
The Top Ten
1 Krystal

I'd like to see Krystal replace Wolf, and make Wolf an alternate costume to fox. Star fox only deserves 3 spots on the roster, and using her staff and her grenades, Krystal needs on of them. It'd also add more females to the game, which we need at the moment.

More women, please. And Fox, Falco, and Wolf have almost the exact same set of moves. Krystal would be new and different. Please Nintendo, think of the ladies!

Would have been another girl, and a Star Fox rep that wasn't a clone of Fox, and would have felt really unique with staff based melee and magic projectiles.

The game needs more female characters and a starfox character who isn't a clone of Fox. Krystal is a great character in the SF games so she would be brilliant in SSB4. And why the hell do people want shadow? He would just be a clone of sonic and he is a 3rd party side-character (SHADOW WOULD BE A WASTE OF SPACE) KRYSTAL for the win

2 Shadow Shadow the Hedgehog is a character who appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series released by Sega. He is an artificially created black and red hedgehog whose hover shoes propel him at extreme speeds that rival those of Sonic.

Shadow is perfect for this series. He has similar speed to sonic and can teleport, he has lots of helpful moves and he could use moves like Chaos Spear. Also I even thought up a final smash. It's called Chaos Control. Time freezes and nobody can move during it. You have two choices, You can beat them up while time is frozen with a 48% K.O. chance or you can shoot a huge lazer of death which unfreezes time but has a 95% K.O. chance

This hedgehog, who seems to have his destiny intertwined with Sonic's, is adept at using the "chaos" force, and claims to be the "ultimate life form". His powers are extraordinary and the applications of them vast, being able to warp space and time, create rifts, Form weapons, and even teleport things of intense mass to other parts of the planet.

Shadow would be way better than Other Sonic Characters! Amy would have a hammer and be a clone of King Dedede,No characters can fly without flapping wings or a certain item so Tails is out. Eggman...do I have to say it?

Here's why I say no;
No because all you need to do to make him in the game is take sonic color him black and some red in his hair and give him him a new voice for when he says chaos control for going super.
so pretty much sonic in smash 4 but with shadows look

3 Waluigi Waluigi is a lanky self-centered, brusque young lad as he is considered evil and the main rival of Luigi. Waluigi is shown causing local havoc in most games he appears in alongside his partner Wario. Waluigi is not instinctively evil or the antagonist (not counting DDR), as a matter of fact, he shows great compassion for his fellow peers, typically for characters Daisy and Wario. Waluigi is also described as lonely, rejected, sad, or depressed due to his relationship with the Super Smash Bros. franchise, and people outside of Nintendo continually rejecting him. In recent years, people have come to Waluigi's defense, giving him support and even starting a cult following. In sum, Waluigi is the ...read more.

Here's my idea for his Special Moves & Final Smash if he were playable in Smash.
Neutral Special: Pinball Throw-Waluigi throws a metallic pinball similar to how Wario throws one in the Pinball Zone from Wario Land 4.

Side Special: Pinball Bumper-Waluigi summons a bumper from Waluigi Pinball (Mario Kart DS) to push opponents away & block projectiles. This could work like Palutena's Reflect Barrier.

Up Special: Pinball Flipper-Waluigi jumps off from a moving flipper similar to Sonic's Spring Jump & Mega Man's Rush Coil. The flipper can shock people that try to jump on it, which references how the flippers act in Waluigi Pinball (Mario Kart DS).

Down Special: Sparky Sticker-Waluigi takes out a Sparky Sticker from Mario Party 4 & puts it on the ground. Anyone that steps on it will get electrically shocked by an Amp.

Final Smash: Waluigi Pinball-Waluigi traps opponents inside a pinball machine where they're bounced off pinball bumpers & attacked by giant ...more

Waluigi has always been my favorite mario character so I want him in smash. He could be unique. Also I feel like I'm the only person that likes Waluigi NOT just because of memes

For the memes. Seriously, though, Mario doesn't have a character that represents the spin-offs and Waluigi would be the perfect fit for that.

Remember Little mac who became a playable CHaracter in Smash 4 after being a assist trophy in Brawl? Sakurai can do the same with him.

4 Miles "Tails" Prower

Honestly, it's weird seeing Sonic in the game that Tails isn't. I don't understand why people want Shadow more. Tails could honestly be a brawler or gunner which is great and he's one of the best characters in the Sonic Series. And let's be real, Sonic needs more friends to fight with him in smash and what would be a better way to start that off with Tails. Plus, who doesn't like this sweet, loyal fox-cub?

Come on! Out of all the Sonic characters, you pick Tails?! Seriously, Shadow, Knuckles, Silver, Eggman, heck even Amy Rose would be better choices. Tails is a weakling and should never be in Smash.

Heck yeah! He has a lot of move potential, like using his inventions and flying. I mean, his final smash could be like the land master, controlling a plane and wiping everyone out!

His Final Smash should be having all of the other characters (Knuckles, Silver, Amy etc. ) run across the screen since it would be a pain having them all in the game.

5 Toad Toad, known in Japan as Kinopio, is a major character in the Mario Bros. franchise. He assists Princess Peach in the Mushroom Kingdom and will do whatever it takes to help her. He first appeared in the classic game, Super Mario Bros. after being kidnapped by Bowser and his minions. Since then he has been a reappearing character in the Mario Bros. series as a playable character in the New Super Mario Bros. series, Super Mario 3D World, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Super Mario Run, and many other games. He also appears as playable character in many Mario-spinoff games including the Mario Kart series, Mario Party games, Mario and Sonic Olympic Games, Mario Sports Games, and many more. ...read more.

Why wouldn't you want toad in smash there little adorable mushroom people so yeah. And toadette, she is pretty adorable, and she looks just like toad

Same thing with Koopa Troopa, Toad would be a nice addition to the Mario franchise in smash bros along with every other Mario characters.

I love toad and I have the perfect move set for him. his normal special will a mushroom which makes him bigger. his left and right special will be a launch attack like luigi's but for toad he will have a mushroom charge meter going to single mushroom to golden mushroom. the golden mushroom will be the strongest and will launch the victim furthe. his down special will be a turnup. his up special will be the propeller hat which makes with fly up. his final smash will be a giant pow block which launches people of the screen. if anyone wants has any other ideas please share them.

See, this is what I don't understand. Side characters like the villager from animal crossing is added but toad isn't. what the heck.

6 Crash Bandicoot Crash Bandicoot is a video game franchise of platform video games. The series, originally exclusive to the Sony PlayStation, was created by Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin during their tenure at Naughty Dog for Sony Computer Entertainment.

Not only would Crash be awesome as a third-party character, he's part of a lot of people's childhoods! I'm sure everyone would LOVE playing as him! Maybe his final smash would be all the monsters from the series coming at you and running you off the screen from all directions. Also, one of his alternative skins should be the silver-furred Crash, which is the skin for the second player in his games.

Hey we got banjo, why not crash too?

I think he has a high chance.

Think of the taunts

7 Rayman Rayman is the main protagonist and title character of the Rayman series created by Ubisoft game designer Michel Ancel.

Rayman legends has a reference to Nintendo and he is seen on Nintendo platforms he has a chance.

Rayman is just a very cool fighter in his own game and I would love to play as him in smash.

8 Koopa Troopa Koopa Troopas, or just simply Koopas, known in Japan as Nokonoko, are a fictional race of turtle-like creatures from the Mario series, as well as its sister Yoshi series. They most often appear as common ground enemies.

Darth Vader? A real life NFL player? SpongeBob? Toy Story? Cartoon Network characters? This is SUPER SMASH BROS. FOR GOD DAMN SAKES! Haven't any of you ever even played a Smash bros. Game? Smash bros. consists of ONLY Nintendo characters! I love Darth Vader and Toy Story but they're NOT Nintendo franchises! Vote for actual Nintendo characters instead of filling this list full of characters who neither belong in nor ever will be in Smash bros.! Characters like the Koopa Troopa should be in Smash - Koopa Troopa has earned it - he is a classic NINTEDO character, and could spin back and fourth on the stage in his shell like Bowser does in Smash Wii U!

Koopa Troopa would make a great edition to Smash Bros! Even though he would be kind of slow, his recovery would be when he grows wings and is able to fly up the stage in any direction for 10 seconds.

Literally, he is my personal number 1. He is in all the Mario Kart Games since SNES and his movesets wouldn't be that stupid. Sakurai, please think this through. If the Piranha Plant made it, why can't Koopa Troopa?

More enemies in Smash! More enemies in Smash! More enemies in Smash! More enemies in Smash!

9 Goku Son Goku (Kakarrot) is the main protagonist in Dragon Ball franchise created by Akira Toriyama in 1984. He has many abilities like, super strength, utilization of ki, flight, teleportation, super speed, enhanced reflexes, and Super Saiyan transformation that increase strength, speed, and durability. His real name was suppose to be Kakarrot because that's his Saiyan name, and he is the son of Badrock, and Gina. His brother was Raditz. When they sent Goku (Kakarrot) to Earth his grandfather Gohan took care of him. Later on Goku didn't realize it when he was a kid, but he killed his grandfather Gohan because it was a full moon, and Goku looked at it, so he turned into a giant ape.

He made it to a computer game called super smash flash 2(try that game similar to super smash bros brawl! )

Don't you realize Goku you'd be the most overpowered character anyway?

Goku is the best and no one is telling me otherwise!

Goku is not going to make it because sakurai said he doesn't want characters that weren't originated in games goku
Was originated in anime not games

10 Bomberman

Think about it. Joining a Smash Bros. game and blowing everyone out of the battlefield! Bomberman would be a very good addition to the series. Enough said.

People have always pictured bomberman in super smash, he would be an amazing addition to the smash series! He would BLOW the competition away

Sad he became a special event as no-one plays with items, meaning no-one sees this fantastic character.

Sadly, he didn't make it. Oh well, there's always next time, I guess. Whenever that is.

The Contenders
11 Paper Mario

The amount of interesting moves he could do would make him a good addition with his hammer being the obvious choice the other options are limitless since he's made of paper. Should be there instead of doctor Mario especially since the paper Mario games were much better and are still going on. Seems a no brainer

He should be good as an alternate Mario who lack his bad moves like F.L.U. D and remplace it with grond pound

As long as he isn't a Mario clone.

I think they could make him a pretty unique character if they don't make him a carbon copy of Mario

12 Darth Vader Darth Vader is a Star Wars character and the main antagonist of the first three original Star Wars films and the main protagonist of the Star Wars prequel trilogy under his original name Anakin Skywalker. He had been trained as a Jedi but defected to the Sith lord and Galactic Chancellor Palpatine. ...read more.

Put him in first

13 Spongebob Squarepants SpongeBob SquarePants is a fictional character and the titular character and protagonist of the American animated television series of the same name.

This would be so much fun. Just imagine all the possible moves he could use. He could wield a reef blower, a spatula, a jellyfish net, Mermaid Man's belt, bubbles...

He could make Gary attack his enemies!

I really like SpongeBob and I wish he should in the super smash bros brawl

I love that sea sponge

14 Master Chief Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, more commonly known as the Master Chief, is a SPARTAN-II commando of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command. He is the protagonist and main character in both the Halo trilogy and Reclaimer Saga.

The original mascot for microsoft. He is a better rep for xbox than Banjo Kazooie. I really like Banjo Kazooie but Master Chief is more of a microsoft character than Banjo Kazooie.

Master Chief like Snake a a human who has a lot weapons and would be nice in smash.

He would actually have guns...

15 Bandana Dee

Please add him.
Sakurai give him a chance.
Mighty spear.
Cool bandana.
Cute, strong.
Another cool Kirby character to add to the game.
My honest favorite character out all the everyone in the Kirby game franchise.

Bandana Dee needs to be in!

16 Shovel Knight

It pains me that shovel knight is a assist trophy and is not a character in smash.

Who wouldn't want such an amazing character in smash?

Hit me up with shovel knight.

17 Scorpion Scorpion is a recurring player character and occasional boss character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise created by Ed Boon and John Tobias. His debut is in the first Mortal Kombat game.
18 Homer Simpson Homer Jay Simpson is the main protagonist of the American animated television series The Simpsons as the patriarch of the eponymous family.

Here's an idea for a game. Super Smash Simpsons. You start with the family and progressively get more residents of Springfield. Moe would be the best.

Homer should get in and be in every smash game after his debut! Bart could also be added and his special move would be Bartman similar to Wario who has Wario Man

19 Blaziken Blaziken, known in Japan as Bashāmo, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Yes. Screw Lucario, Blaziken's the real deal.

20 Tracer (Overwatch) Tracer is a playable character appearing in the 2016 video game Overwatch, a first-person shooter video game developed by Blizzard Entertainment.

Cool. More third-party characters. Tracer would probably be an interesting addition to the roster even though I haven't played Overwatch myself.

Literal goddess that deserves to be worshipped 24/7.

21 Kirito Kazuto Kirigaya is a fictional character who appears in the Sword Art Online series of light novels by Reki Kawahara.

Swords + Anime = Ideal Smash Fighter (According to Sakurai)

Seriously though, dual-wielding swords is something not in smash yet and would be cool.

He has good sword skills and is very powerful.

22 K.K. Slider

He would be sick

23 Fawful Fawful, known in Japan as Gerakobits, is a fictional character appearing in the Mario & Luigi series of role-playing video games developed by AlphaDream.

I know I won't make many friends with my next choice. I mean, come on, he may be a little weak, looking for smash brothers, but don't get me wrong. Inside that guy is a beast. A beast that can destroy everything around him.

Fat Albert is above him?!

24 Popeye Popeye the Sailor is a fictional American cartoon character created by Elzie Crisler Segar. The character first appeared in the daily King Features comic strip Thimble Theatre on January 17, 1929, and Popeye became the strip's title in later years.

Only hardcore Nintendo fans will get this.

25 Alucard Alucard is a fictional character and the protagonist and antihero of the Hellsing manga and anime series created by Kouta Hirano.
